(NASDAQ:AMPL), a prepackaged software services company with annual revenue of $299.27 million and a market capitalization of $1.32 billion, has entered into a significant lease agreement for its existing San Francisco office space, according to a recent 8-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. According to InvestingPro analysis, the company maintains a strong liquidity position with more cash than debt on its balance sheet. The new lease, effective as of March 21, 2025, with KR 201 Third Street Owner, LLC, will commence on October 1, 2025, or upon the termination of the current sublease with Postmates, LLC, which is set to expire on September 30, 2025.
Under the terms of the lease, Amplitude will continue to occupy approximately 57,530 square feet at 201 Third Street, San Francisco, California. The initial term of the lease will run until February 28, 2029, with the option for Amplitude to extend for an additional three years. The monthly base rent is set at $225,325.83 for the first year, with a scheduled annual increase of approximately 3%. The company appears well-positioned to handle these financial commitments, with InvestingPro data showing a healthy current ratio of 2.1 and an impressive gross profit margin of 74.3%.
The company will benefit from a base rent abatement amount of approximately $2.6 million before any rent payments are required. Additionally, Amplitude has secured a right of first offer and an option to expand its premises by approximately 30,938 square feet.
As part of the agreement, Amplitude is also required to provide a standby letter of credit in the amount of $850,000, which must be maintained for 120 days following the lease’s expiration. The landlord retains the right to terminate the lease upon customary events of default.
The full details of the lease will be disclosed in Amplitude’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending March 31, 2025.
